Good to see you working on it. Keep us in the loop as to what you decide to do

Re: Came in with a Bang
Well I was thinking about the Street fighter look as well. Much cheaper too.Grinner wrote:Dang...that girl would look sweet with a streetfighter style front fairing and a little cleanup on the tail!
Here's a better less clutter view for the Street fighter edition.
Just need to figure out how to mount the head and tail lights.

Re: Came in with a Bang
Do you not have insurance on the bike?

Re: Came in with a Bang
I seem to recall seeing a street fighter busa once some place, don't remember where I was though.
dufremle, he mentioned some place that he didn't have full coverage.

Re: Came in with a Bang
Have you gotten to take a looke at the rear brake? I was wondering about what all you would have to do to fix that

Re: Came in with a Bang
I would recommend you take it to a shop to have the entire bike looked over. You don't want to miss anything important.

Dude, not even, that thing was hideous.!Rhino wrote:Probably at a Suzuki dealer, it's called the B-King.DarcShadow wrote:I seem to recall seeing a street fighter busa once some place, don't remember where I was though.
As DS mentioned, I only had basic liability so it's not going to cover this scenario.
Re: Came in with a Bang
I was definitely planning on doing that before getting back on but can anyone recommend a good shop?dufremle wrote:I would recommend you take it to a shop to have the entire bike looked over. You don't want to miss anything important.

Re: Came in with a Bang
A lot of the club members use Cycle Werkz. They're a private shop that specializes in sport bikes. There's a link to their website right there at the bottom of this page. If you need some help getting your bike to a shop, let us know.Lone wrote:I was definitely planning on doing that before getting back on but can anyone recommend a good shop?dufremle wrote:I would recommend you take it to a shop to have the entire bike looked over.

Re: Came in with a Bang
They will go over everything on the bike and make sure they identify as much as they can. They usually do this with insurance so I am not sure how much they would charge for it. You can call them and ask.

Re: Came in with a Bang
Dittos on the above and dont forget that if you have questions or just need a hand with that beast, let us know.
One of the other benefits if you go to CycleWerkz is they work on alot o busa's...and I mean ALOT! Im sure they know every mm of those bikes front to back and could tear down and rebuild one in the dark.
